Here for sale we have a Tokai ATE53 GS/M Electric Guitar in Golden Sunburst finish. Made in China in 2021, this guitar consists of an Alder body, a Canadian Maple neck, and a 21-fret Maple fingerboard. This guitar is equipped with a set of SD901L_P05 machine heads, and a TE-VBC Bridge. The pickups fitted in this guitar are a set of Tokai TEC-F Single Coils, and these are wired to a master volume, master tone, and a three-way pickup selector.
The Maple neck plays very well, with a 'U' profile filling the hand nicely for a substantial yet articulate grip across the register. The Maple fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, providing a smooth and durable playing surface right the way up to the 21nd fret, and with its 13.77" radius offers a perfect marriage between comfortable playability and modern practicality.
The TEC-F single-coil pickups provide the player with the traditional Tele sound that has long been sought after. These single-coils deliver a tight low end, clear and balanced midrange and a sparkling, crystalline treble response. The neck pickup is both warm and articulate, delivering a buttery smooth tone for your lead lines and solo tones. The middle position is nicely balanced, and is well suited to funky rhythm parts and chordal playing. The bridge pickup really is the main event though, with a searing Tele 'Twang' that is perfectly suited to country licks and bluesy riffing, easily cutting through the mix to put your playing front and centre.
